Cinephiles

We’ve all been there. A famous movie line is tossed around in casual conversation and next thing you know, someone has to ruin the moment by acting out the scene.

Well, this is my homage to those screenwriters who work in solitary confinement to create those famous lines that do so much more. Words that can bail us out or redeem us. Words that make us laugh. Make us smile. Make us cry. Most importantly…make us feel.

Some of you may blurt out the obvious….the cast, characters, the movies, the Director. But it’s a true cinephile that knows the answer for the screenwriter.

Now for the no brainers….
